Special Friend

We spent today with our special friends: Evie and her family.

Evie has Transposition of the Great Arteries, just like Graysen. Evie and Graysen were next to each other in the PCICU during their first surgeries and next door to each other in "Step Down." Evie will always hold a special place in our hearts and we consider her Graysen's heart sister. It was a joy to watch them play and enjoy life together.

Evie's parents, Mandy and Chad, live on a lake and we had a blast enjoying a beautiful summer day at the lake with Evie and her four brothers and sisters. Here are a few pictures from our day:

Britain and a frog.
Izzy, Graysen, Caleb, and Evie
We tried to get a picture with all seven kids. Neither Graysen or Evie were cooperative for this picture. So, here are the other five: Izzy, Caleb, Tristan, Abi, and Britain.

Nice to see all the children playing. That is interesting about the girl being next to Greysen.

It certainly looks like it was a great day of fun! I especially loved the pictures of Graysen and Evie in the pool and eating. It sure looks like they were enjoying the day together. All the children are just adorable.......Love, Mom
